Re: my 65 fleetside build
Nice work on the bedside, flips. I built my SB out of a '66 and a '62. Hours upon hours to get it even somewhat nice.
What size is your steering wheel? I love the look of those but dont know if I could yank around my manual steer '66.

Re: my 65 fleetside build
thanks , just checked out your build (allaboutchevelles) looks good to me, also looks as though you have some skills. i wish i could find a bed like the one you did, looks like i will be cutting a long bed lower skin down to fit mine, oh wellthats my luck just got back from moultrie ga swap meet there was hardly anything for our trucks, kinda disappointed in the whole meet, not many vendors, probably the weather. i hope to get back to work monday .

Re: my 65 fleetside build
Just remember that the short bed wheel openings are smaller than the longbed wheel openings.

Re: my 65 fleetside build
i sure didnt know that, i just took it for granted they were the same in the wheel well opening area i figured it was twelve inches longer in the front and eight in the rear, never even considered the wheel well, cant seem to catch a break when it comes to this bed side. thats what is so good about this forum, there is a whole lot of knowledge here. thanks capt.fab you probably just saved me a lot of time and work.
